<div dir="ltr">CALL FOR PAPERS<br>MICCAI 2017 Workshop on<br>Clinical Image-based Procedures: Translational Research in Medical Imaging<br><br><br>September 17, 2017<br>Quebec City, Canada<br><br>Website:<a href="http://miccai-clip.org/" target="_blank">http://miccai-clip.<wbr>org/</a><br>==============================<br>==============================<wbr>============<br><br>SCOPE<br><br>The
outstanding proliferation of medical image applications has created a
need for greater study and scrutiny of the clinical application and
validation of such methods. New strategies are essential to ensure a
smooth and effective translation of computational image-based techniques
into the clinic. For these reasons CLIP 2017’s major focus is on
translational research filling the gaps between basic science and
clinical applications. A highlight of the workshop is the subject of
strategies for personalized medicine to enhance diagnosis, treatment and
interventions. Authors are encouraged to submit work centered on
specific clinical applications, including techniques and procedures
based on comprehensive clinical image data. Submissions related to
applications already in use and evaluated by clinical users are
particularly encouraged. The event will bring together world-class
specialists to present ways to strengthen links between computer
scientists and engineers, and clinicians.<br><br><br>TOPICS<br><br>*Strategies for patient-specific and anatomical modeling to support planning and interventions<br><br>*Clinical studies employing advanced image-guided methods<br><br>*Clinical translation and validation of image-guided systems<br><br>*Current challenges and emerging techniques in image-based procedures<br><br>*Identification of parameters and error analysis in image-based procedures<br><br>*Multimodal image integration for modeling, planning and guidance<br><br>*Clinical applications in open and minimally invasive procedures<br><br><br><br><br>PAPER SUBMISSION<br><br>Papers
will be limited to ten pages following the MICCAI submission
guidelines. Prospective authors should refer to the Paper Submission
section on the workshop website for details on how to submit papers to
be presented at the workshop.<br>All submissions will be peer-reviewed
by at least 2 members of the program committee. The selection of the
papers will be based on the significance of results, novelty, technical
merit, relevance and clarity of presentation. Papers will be presented
in a day long single track workshop starting with plenary sessions.<br>Accepted
papers will be published as a proceedings volume in the Springer
Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series after the workshop.<br><br>WORKSHOP FORMAT<br><br>Accepted
papers will be presented in a day long single track workshop. The final
program will consist of invited speakers and original papers with time
allocated for discussions. Electronic proceedings will be arranged for
all of the papers presented at the workshop.<br><br>IMPORTANT DATES<br><br>* June 12, 2017: Paper submission due date<br>* June 29, 2017: Notification of acceptance<br>* July 3, 2017: Final camera-ready paper submission deadline<br><br>CONTACT<br><br>Inquires about the workshop should be sent to the Information Desk (<a href="mailto:info@miccai-clip.org" target="_blank">info@miccai-clip.org</a>).<br><br>ORGANIZERS (in alphabetical order)<br><br>Klaus Drechsler (Fraunhofer IGD, Germany)<br>Marius Erdt (Fraunhofer IDM@NTU, Singapore)<br>Miguel González Ballester (ICREA - Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Spain)<br>Marius George Linguraru (Children's National Medical Center, USA)<br>Cristina Oyarzun Laura (Fraunhofer IGD, Germany)<br>Raj Shekhar (Children's National Medical Center, USA)<br>Stefan Wesarg (Fraunhofer IGD, Germany)<br><br>==============================<wbr>==============================<wbr>============ </div>
